Big discounts on Apple products aren\u2019t common, but with the year\u2019s biggest sales event coming up, it could be time to save. In this guide, we\u2019ll be offering you tips and advice on how to bag bargain AirPods during Black Friday 2021<\/a>.<\/p>\n Since the removal of the headphone jack from iPhones \u2013 and most Android phones \u2013 wireless earbuds have become a must-have piece of kit. For Apple fans, it has to be AirPods, but for some less partisan earbuds users, the AirPods are still the earbud of choice.<\/p>\n Whatever your reasons for wanting a pair of AirPods, the sad truth is that they\u2019re expensive. So, any and all Black Friday discounts on second-generation AirPods, or AirPods Pro, would be very welcome for those would-be AirPods buyers. As a result, we\u2019re doing our best in this guide to hunt down the latest and greatest AirPods deals and signpost the best places and ways for you to make savings on a pair of Apple\u2019s earbuds.<\/p>\n For those of you hoping to pick up AirPods in the seasonal sales, one other interesting factor may come into play. Apple did not announce new AirPods at their September event, even though many commentators expected them to. We\u2019re still expecting some new AirPods relatively soon, and several leaks have suggested they\u2019re on the way. With that in mind \u2013 and thanks to the fact that the AirPods and AirPods Pro are now older products anyway \u2013 we may be more likely to see the current offerings discounted this Black Friday.<\/p>\n AirPods were the third most popular item by search during Black Friday 2020 and the most popular item in terms of site traffic, according to figures from SEMrush<\/a>. So bear in mind that getting them for a discount is competitive!<\/p>\n Read on for tips and tricks, a review of last year\u2019s deals, a note on what to expect this year and much more. We\u2019re also serving up the best AirPods deals available right now.<\/p>\n There are currently some tempting AirPods deals that might prevent some buyers from waiting until Black Friday arrives. Right now, Amazon is offering 20% off AirPods Pro and \u2013 oddly \u2013 21% off AirPods. Take a look at the latest deals on both below.<\/p>\n So, the question is, will prices drop even further? We wouldn\u2019t be surprised to see even bigger AirPods price drops as Black Friday arrives because they are such a popular product, but there are no guarantees.<\/p>\n If you want earbuds but might be open to a non-Apple version, then take a look at our best earbuds deals<\/a> page for a comprehensive list of the best buds deals right now.<\/p>\n Right now, second-generation AirPods or AirPods Pro are the only earbuds available for purchase from Apple. However, an upcoming event could change that, with the company set to announce new products next week.<\/p>\n For those wanting to pick up AirPods now, though, what are the key differences between the second-gen AirPods and the AirPods Pro?<\/p>\n Firstly, the price. The Pro buds come in around \u00a3100 more expensive than the standard AirPods. This is largely because of their active noise cancellation, but other key differences include a closer in-ear fit. That\u2019s much better if you\u2019re planning to use them in the gym or during activity, but they can become uncomfortable after a long period of use. The standard AirPods are more comfortable for long periods of listening.<\/p>\n Within the bracket of second-gen AirPods, there are actually two slightly different types available. If you\u2019re on a limited budget and simply want a pair of earbuds that work perfectly with an iPhone, the Apple AirPods (with wired charging case)<\/a>\u00a0will serve you well. If you want the bonus of charging the case wirelessly, you can pay a little extra for the\u00a0Apple AirPods (with wireless charging case)<\/a>.<\/p>\n The cheaper AirPods with a wired charging case were the single product to accrue the most website traffic during Black Friday 2020, according to SEMrush<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you want the full lowdown on which is best for you, take a look at our Apple AirPods vs AirPods Pro<\/a> breakdown.<\/p>\n The first and most important piece of advice we can give you to help you make savings on Black Friday is this \u2013 shop around! Retailers will be fiercely competitive in order to win your custom, as each one tries to attract attention to their site.<\/p>\n Take a look at the links below for our guides on all the biggest retailers and categories this Black Friday.<\/p>\n So, shopping around is crucial, but what other tips and tricks can help you find a Black Friday bargain? Take a look at our guide below.<\/p>\n Apple AirPods are an eye-catching product to discount, so they\u2019re not likely to be on sale until the big day, November 26th. Remember also that sales are likely to continue right through to the 29th \u2013 Cyber Monday 2021 \u2013 stock allowing.<\/p>\n However, it\u2019s always the case that one or two products that wouldn\u2019t necessarily be expected to have their prices slashed early do. This is generally another competitive measure, as retailers try to stand out from the crowd. That means it\u2019s worth keeping your eyes peeled before Black Friday itself, or at least re-visiting this page, which we\u2019ll be updating with the latest deals.<\/p>\n Last year AO offered up an Apple AirPods<\/a> price drop \u2013 down from \u00a3137 to \u00a3125. It\u2019s wasn\u2019t the biggest discount ever, but it\u2019s notoriously hard to get big discounts on AirPods. That said, the savings available right now (listed earlier) are much better.<\/p>\n Ultimately, thanks to the imminent release of a new set of AirPods \u2013 though this is far from confirmed \u2013 it seems likely that there will be much better AirPods discounts this year during Black Friday than there were last year. Heck \u2013 there already are. So, stay tuned, and we\u2019ll keep this page updated with the lowest prices.
